GAZETTE Claims TO have Information that
warrants the belief that the Chicago and
Alton Railroad Company will soon have
Two lines Of road reaching Fort Worth.
One, it is said, will proceed from
Jefferson City, Mo, through Arkansas
AMI the Indian Territory TO its southern
terminus while the other will leave the
msin line st IIgginsyille, liiry-Gge miles
from Kansas City, and pass through
Pleasant Hill, Fort Scott and Parsons, on
its way south. 1t IS under
stood that these extensions will
be constructed by companies controlled
by the ChiCsGo and Alton The
former would afford very dire c. line for
Chicago business, and The latter would
take care of Kansas City traffic. While
all the other western roads have been
branching out the Alton has simply held
its p sition, but the contamination Of The
neU projects mentioned, although con-
trary 10 the long established policy Of the
company, would not be surprising. This
much may be said II the Alton desires
new lines, 1t is perfectly able 10 build
them, and they will be first class roads.

Mr.. SID. Il. NEALY, a young journalist
Of Washington City, has Invented "ses
DEVIL" or submarine torpedo, capable Of
carrying q charge OF nearly thCusan d
pounds Of dynamite. 1t Is to be sent
after an enemy's ship from either shore
or shipbOard, and its inventor asserts
that no ship, however fast, can run away
from II, even In slow chase. The body
Of the torpedo, carrying the charge. re-
wolves with tremendous rapidity, the
shaft In the rear being held mOtjOnless,
first by f)at to which the torpedo Is
attached, and afterwards by four blades
that stick out from the shaft like 80
many wings Of churn. paddle. Reach
ing the guards Of the ship, the torpedo
ducks Its head, dives fourteen feet into
the water, raises Its head and darts
against ships hull. 1t is steered
until 1t reaches the ship by electric
wires. but the most accurate shOts can
be made with 1t at a distance of three
quarters Of a mile. Mr.. Nealy will soon
give an exhibition Of his sea devil.

The secret Is out, II reports are true,
that Trotter, the new R3cOrdel Of Deeds
for the District of Columbia, Is a Be-
publican, which would 60 to show that
the President has some claim to shrewd-
ness In his tactics, and has succeeded In
running the Republicans to hole. They
denied the charge that they rejected the
nomination of Matthews because he was
q Democrat, but allege that 1t was be-
cause he was not citizen Of the Dis
triet. They hastened to confirm Trotter,
who, like Matthews, is not citizen Of
the District. bnt unlike Matthews, is a
Republican. This proves conclusiVely
that the Republicans do not recognize
the right of the Colored man to think
for himself on political matters, and
that colOred man who presumes to be
a Democrat has no rights which they are
bound t0Tespeet

The Maine Legislature on Tuesday,
by vote of 101 to "a, passed a new
liquor bill, which is intended 10 be more
stringent than the present law. It pro-
Vides that the State Liquor Commits
sioner shall not hereafter sell to any
municipal officer any intoxicating
liquors, except those pronounced pure
by competent assayer. He is placed
undera bond of $4,000 for faithful dis
charge of duties, and to receive $500
and 6 per cent. Of the cost Of liquor as
sayed for liquor and expenses. Further
sections prevent delivery OF liquor with
In the State at other than regularly es-
tsblished depOts. 1t prohibits the sale Of
wine and porter, strong beer, lager beer,
and other malt liquors In any quantity.
1t also constitutes penalty for the first
offense Of sale equal to that Of the pres
ent second Offense, Druggists are pro-
hibited from keeping any other intoxi

liquors Is held as prima facie evidence
Of sale. The payment for, or applics

comfort out of every event In life or
death. The other day Charles Murphy,
a river man, passed In his checks and
his friends concluded to wake" him In

Tuesday night In livery Htable. The

was q continual sousing In beer. About
8 O'Clock In the morning the mOurners

placed on the floor and each man
stretched himself In coffin. As there
were not enough cofiins to 60 around,
the corpse was dumped out and placed
In sitting position In one corner o

Speaker Carlisle of the House, He
charged Mr.. Carlisle with gross usurpa-
tiOn Of power as speaker, comparing
him unfavorably with other speakers,
Senators Beck and Blackburn, Of Ken
tuoky gave grandmother HOar thorough
dressing down that even he will not soon
forget. 1t was an uncalled for attack,
wholly out Of place. On all hands 1t Is
admitted Mr.. Carlisle has been fair
and impartial Speaker, and In proof, we
need only point to the fact that,
just prior to adjournment, Mr.. Reed, of
Maine, the strongest Republican in the
House, and Its confessed leader upon
that side, a man who Is a partisan way
down to his big toe, moved resolution
Of thanks to the Speaker for his absolute
impartlallty In his great Office, and that
this resolution was unanimously passed
with the especial honor of a standing
vote. b .
No doubt, the practise Of the House, a
Republican practice in fact, Of holding
back the appr DristiOn bills until the
last hours Of Congress prevents the Sen
ate from properly considering them.
This part Of Mr.. HOar's idea was not bad
but he made woful mistake as to the
manner and place Of arraignment.
